Sen. Gore, conducting the hearing in the absence of the chairman, Sen. Hollings, opened by criticizing the Bush Administration for lack of leadership in addressing serious air pollution problems. Specifically cited were (1) an April 1990 White House conference on global warming where the President outraged delegates of other nations by failing to recognize the urgency or the problem; and (2) in May 1990, for a meeting on the ozone layer, the President instructed U.S. negotiators to oppose efforts by other nations to protect this layer. Making brief statements to the committee and submitting their material for the record were the following officials reporting for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (the IPCC) Working Groups: (1) Dr. Alan D. Hecht, Deputy Assistant Administrator for International Activities, EPA; (2) Dr. Frederick M. Bernthal, Deputy Director, NSF; and (3) Dr. Robert A. Watson, Office of Space Science and Applications, NASA.
